Abstract
AMPK is a kinase involved in cell energy homeostasis. In this issue of Cell Metabolism, Chopra and colleagues (2011) reveal a new function of AMPK in stimulating fat absorption. AMPK enhances the expression of the bile acid transporter, BSEP, by activating the coactivator SRC-2, thus promoting bile acid secretion. Copyright ÂEntities:
